    If he was the better player or truly on the same level as the opponent, sure. Truls is the better player so this kind of thing happens all the time, even in my matches, and neither myself nor my opponents are chokers.

    Who is this mysterious choker? If I win a string of points to get a lead, why can't the opponent win their own string to tie? Why is that choking lol?

    Looks like wanting Lily to compete is wishful thinking at this point. Shin is playing like a machine. Lily juat doesn't seem to have an edge in anything since Shin plays faster and that is Lily's usual strength.

    Australia, 9now seems to be the top recommendation. But I have also got recommendations of a free link. https://gglive.vn/live/ttr-live/241619674054266880

    Oh he did better - he wasn't as embarrassed in serve and serve return. But the game score was unchanged. And given that LYJ has had injury and form issues of his own, I am okay saying little changed.

    Thus is normal in Olympic games, especially for sports where the host has a favorite. The competitors have either have to find their own living spaces to be more comfortable or fight both the sport and the living conditions to get into medal form. Most well paid and sponsored athletes only...

    Answer so far: other than different serve patterns, absolutely nothing.
  8. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Jorgic gets to answer the question - what does 3 years do to a matchup in TT?
  9. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Hugo has been in supernatural form since mid May. With WCQ out, it will take a lot to beat him. That said there are no more easy matches in this draw.
  10. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    It's a best of seven for a reason.
  11. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    That was a great set of matches. Now another great set. I was a bit annoyed at this R32 and R16 on the same day format in terms of athlete care, but the amount of TT we are getting today is amazing.

    This PRK player has an interesting way of playing better when she is behind. Great comeback.
  13. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    I wouldn't be surprised if there were complaints made about Bernie's serve by the Chinese before this match.
  14. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    But as @zeio and myself have pointed out, this has been an issue for a long time, it is a bit surprising as you said for it to get called out at this match only, but her tomahawk has a low backward toss that has made it dubious forever.

    The problem for Dima is that he won bronze in 2012 and 2020 and nothing in 2008 and 2016. So the pattern tells you he is not due this year... Dima always tights though and that is what I respect him for.
  16. Wang Chuqin, can he really be the future of CNT??

    Xiao Zhan is notorious for overtraining the players he coaches.

    If you say so. The truth is that strength (not necessarily hypertrophy) helps in table tennis, no one knows the right balance of muscle and flexibility requiried, and whether Kanak is above or below the right amount is purely hypothetical in the absence of research that gives a certain result.
  18. Wang Chuqin, can he really be the future of CNT??

    Xiao Zhan will ruin him over time, I would bet on someone else at this point.
  19. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    When you play a chopper, it is standard to move around the table with only forehand. You know this right? And it is completely normal for a match be 3-0 or 3-1 and any combination of factors changes the match trend. And the winner wins for.a reason as does the loser, did Gionis win a medal...

    And now we can put a moratorium on the stagnation of Truls comments. At least until his next loss lol.
